David Anderson: From NFL to the Business World

This episode features someone who I instantly connected with, David Anderson.

I had an instant connection with David because we both played most fun position in football (wide receiver), wore the jersey #4 at some point during our career, played professionally, and have a passion for relationships and business.

Only thing is he played 6 years in the NFL while I played one season with a broken wrist in the AFL.

It goes to show that speed kills and as long as you’ve got the speed, you’ve got a great chance of sticking around in the NFL if you can stay healthy and make plays.

Let me introduce you to (the better dressed, and faster version of myself)… David Anderson.

The School of Greatness Podcast

David recently reached out to me through my site, we met up for lunch in L.A. and instantly hit it off. While he may not look like your typical amazing athlete, (he’s a smaller guy at 5’10” ish) he played at the top level of one of the most competitive and elite leagues in the world, the NFL.

In this podcast we’re going to discuss how he got there, what it was like playing in the NFL, the mindset of some of the best quarterbacks in the world (ever heard of Peyton Manning?) and plenty of other great tips.
